Chapter 74 Xiangying ran away!
When Xiangying woke up, he was locked in a separate cabin.
She moved slightly, and there was a sound of the chain on her wrist.
Looking down, I found that the bracelets and anklets that I had taken off long ago were locked back again.
Xiangying frowned immediately: "Jie Chen is such a petty-minded man!"
However, it is impossible to lock her up with chains.
Xiangying took out a piece of wire from the space, gently turned it in the lock, and then there was a "click" sound, and the iron chain fell off.
The anklet was untied in the same way, and Xiangying stood up and patted the hem of her skirt.
Looking out through the gap in the window that was sealed with boards, it was already daytime.
Xiangying walked to the door, pulled the wooden door, and found that it was locked from the outside.
She patted the door: "Open the door! Let me out."
Soon, the sound of the skinny monkey was heard outside.
"Sister-in-law, ouch," he lowered his voice because he didn't know if he could call out like that anymore, "Please be quiet. Supervisor Jie is furious and has ordered a large number of soldiers to take turns guarding you. Anyone who dares to let you go will have his head chopped off!"
Through the door, Xiangying frowned her beautiful eyebrows.
"Tell Jie Chen to come see me."
"Please don't embarrass me. How dare I go and get into trouble at this time? Just stay here quietly. After a few days, when the military supervisor has calmed down, you two can still make peace with him."
What you said is relevant.
Xiang Ying's phoenix eyes were filled with coldness: "How could Jie Chen lock me up at this time? We are about to reach the gourd of the water bandits, and only I can help him, open the door quickly!"
How dare the skinny monkey?
Seeing that no matter how he tried to persuade her, he simply covered his ears and yelled, "I can't make the decision!"
After saying this, the skinny monkey arranged for the soldiers to keep a close watch on him, and he hurried away.
Xiangying knocked on the door, but no one paid any attention.
She also knew that Jie Chen must have issued a strict order and no one would help her at this time.
Xiangying suddenly thought of something and turned to look at the window that was sealed with wooden boards.
She walked over to check and found that the wooden boards were temporarily hammered in with nails. There were four thin wooden boards in total, and it was easy to remove them.
He did it right away. Xiangying picked up a carpenter's tool from the space and started prying the nails.
She accidentally made a ping-pong noise, and the soldier at the door immediately shouted, "What are you doing?"
Hearing the noise of them untying the chains and coming in, Xiangying immediately pretended to kick and fight.
"Are you bunch of losers deaf? I want Jie Chen to come see me!"
The soldiers listened through the door and discovered that she was angry.
One of them wanted to open the door to check, but the other stopped him.
"Forget it," the man lowered his voice, "Don't forget that she is good at fighting. Maybe she made the noise on purpose, waiting for us to open the door and then kick us down. If something goes wrong, then we will be blamed by Jie Jianjun again."
"You have a point."
After his colleague nodded, he shouted angrily to the inside of the door: "Stop making such trouble! This time, the military supervisor Jie has said that he will not release you until you are out of the dangerous river and land. Save your energy!"
Xiangying's crying could be faintly heard from inside the door.
The two soldiers looked at each other with mocking eyes.
The eldest princess of the Western Zhou Dynasty would just cry when something happened.
It was almost evening when Xie Chen came over with his men, his face gloomy and stern.
The three children discovered that Xiangying was missing, and they started crying and making a fuss along with Taoxue.
Xiangli repeatedly asked where his sister had gone.
Qi Fengyi was like a crazy woman. When she saw that the soldiers didn't tell her where Xiangying was, she started to take action.
Now it has to be locked up and kept under strict guard.
Xie Chen had been busy with arrangements for the whole day when he suddenly remembered that Xiangying was still imprisoned.
I heard that she wanted to see him, perhaps she also wanted to explain herself.
Xie Chen also had doubts.
At the beginning, he was taken to the palace by the eldest princess because of her good looks and became her male concubine.
He refused at first, but after the princess drank a glass of wine, he lost consciousness.
Not long after, Xie Chen learned that the eldest princess was pregnant.
For this, he was locked up in the cellar by the princess's men.
It was said that he might be the child's biological father. If that was true, he would never be allowed to appear in front of the child again in his life.
However, Fang Gan is now involved.
Xie Chen couldn't help but wonder, after he drank the drugged wine that night, did he really have sex with the eldest princess?
He himself was not sure, and felt annoyed at the thought that he might be someone's favorite father.
In the past, he would have wished to have nothing to do with Xiangying.
Since the child was not his, there was no need for him to tolerate her.
But he thought about it all day, and in the end, for some reason, he still wanted to ask her for a clear answer.
Even though he knew she might lie, Jie Chen still wanted to hear what she had to say.
Seeing that Jie Chen had arrived, the two soldiers guarding the door immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, Military Supervisor!”
"No need to worry," Xie Chen's eyes were dark, "How is she?"
The soldier said, "He refused to eat or drink. At first he cried and smashed things, but then he realized that it was no use, so he just stopped making trouble. Now, he has been silent for a long time."
Xie Chen frowned: "Crying?"
Xiangying would cry? She had such a serious injury on her lower back, but she never shed a single tear.
Why would I cry just because I was locked up!
Xie Chen shouted, “Open the door!”
The two soldiers did not suspect anything and hurriedly opened the door.
However, the cabin was empty, where was the human figure?
"Where are the people?" The soldiers were dumbfounded.
Jie Chen walked in quickly and saw the iron chains scattered on the ground, then went to look at the windows that had been violently broken.
He pinched his brows and gritted his teeth: "Xiangying...I really underestimated her!"
The skinny monkey came at this time and saw the situation in the cabin. He had already guessed something.
He rushed to the window and looked out. He saw the rolling river and the green mountains on both sides.
The skinny monkey was horrified: "This woman is so fierce, military supervisor, she must have escaped!"
Xie Chen immediately gave the order: "Tell someone to drop anchor and stop the boat, and arrange for four teams to follow me in the small boats to chase."
"Chase!?" The skinny monkey was even more surprised.
Xie Chen glanced at him and said, "She's been swimming for so long, she'll be exhausted. Stop talking nonsense and do what I say right now."
"Yes..." The skinny monkey hurried over.
Six large ships were just parked in the middle of the river.
Fortunately, the water flow in the river is not very fast, otherwise it would be impossible to stop.
There was a constant sound of hurried footsteps outside, occasionally accompanied by the curses of General Ke who was passing by.
"I told you long ago that he was bewitched by that woman and lost his mind..." His voice faded away and no one could hear what he said afterwards.
The three little ones put their ears to the door, but could not hear any news about Xiangying.
Tao Xue was pacing around the room anxiously: "What should I do? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Qi have been put under solitary confinement."
She really hated herself for not knowing martial arts.
If she could be like the eldest princess and beat others to a pulp in just a few moves, why would she be locked up here with the children now?
Just then, a muffled groaning sound was heard outside the door.
It seemed that the soldier guarding them had fallen.
Just as the three children were wondering, the door was opened from the outside.
Xiangying's slender and graceful figure appeared at the door.
Xiang Xiuxiu was surprised: "Mother!"
"Shh!" Xiangying made a gesture, rushed into the room, dragged the two unconscious soldiers in, and closed the door behind him.
